ARE WE DEMOCRATS ?

This question is asked by thousands OF
men In Virginia who have proved their
LOYALTY 10 true Democratic principles.
bu, who are called on now to muster
under flag that seems to be blazoned
all over with the ideas and notices OF
Malone. II may be well enough TO have
experimental with the Riddleberger bill,
but to supplement It with the threat OF
rcpudiating the debt is a proposition at
which conservative Democrats Will draw
the line.
How often must the attention of poll
ticians be called to the fact that what
might be iustihablc in 1888 is not jusii-
fable or even sensible policy in 1887
The changed conditions are evidently be-
yond the comprehension OF great many
men. and we hear the same call for any
thing to beat Mahone-Massey, or the
devil If need be-that was uttered when
Malone rule meant the subycrsion OF
free government and the ring rule OF the
Arthur Malone combination.
We do not disguise the evil intentions
Of the Republican boss, but wish to i'm
press on the Democracy the necessity OF
not using that bugbear of Malone TO
inaict on the party a time-serying policy
which is very timid towards the enemy
bnt very bold 10 innict unjust DEGREES on
our own brethren. When tie Virginia
Democracy. through q convention or a
committee. have asked people TO swallow
certain nauscous political nostrums as a
preventive TO Mahoneism, thousands of
men have with a very WY face outraged
the palate with the taste Of the prophy-
Tactic. Butit was promised that when
we had the power, expodiency with its
paint and false prentences would give
place 10 straightforward honesty.
Behold, ;he power has been attained
and with two-thiris majority i'm the Leg
islature we ran away from the shadow
of our promises and plead for more hu-
initiating concessions to that section Of
our party that aims to beat Malone IN

The Ipder1ppeH very properly enter
protest against the system of abusing
newspapers and attributing to the editors
personal motives simply because they
argue for fair discussion of the merits
of Senatorial candidates. We heard
enough Of the base ingratitude' bust
ness once before, and we do not hesitate
TO say that Mr.. Barbour is hurt in the
home of his friends by such apolicy II
will excite opposition among people who
favor Mr. Barbour upon general prin-
ciples
There are hundreds Of men who OPP
posed Nj. Barbour once before simply
because they preferred another candidate,
but who would do anything to gather the
same strength that elected Daniel TO elect
Barbour the next time
Is It wise to be taunung such people
with the silly charge of abusing and de-
p,eciating Nj Barbour.
We can speak Tor a few people at least
when we say that such a plan win De as
sure TO defeat its purpose as the famous
fable makes ont the difference between
force aud persuasion.
The wind used force it was the sun
that used persuasion.
